welp truth is dead .. propaganda won

Here's the new NPR CEO Katherine Maher (and former chief executive of Wikipedia) explaining that "the truth" is an outdated concept.

Everyone can have their own truth:

Good lord... that was some Commala Harris level rambling lol. WTF?

But anyway... Here's an example of NPR's "truth."



And here's the raw, unedited video of what actually happened.



Which one to believe... NPR or the video. I'm so confused now!
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

That video is obviously a virtual reality manipulation to poison the public. I will not let my transgender-gay babies watch it

There is objective truth, given specific axioms.

Examples:

Things that are not true:

Covid is a hoax.
The holocaust never happened.
Stalin killed 60 million people.
Trickle down economics works.
The Earth is flat.
The vaccines are dangerous.
Climate change isn't real.
LGBT is a thing you can be talked into or out of and not something biologically programmed.
Holodomor was a planned genocide.
All jews are evil/rich/etc.

Things that are true:
The media is mostly controlled by zionist jews.
US foreign policy is mostly controlled by zionist jews.
Israel is a fascist entity.
There is no god.

Wait…

So if according to her many truths exist, why does NPR only report one side of it?

Mostly agree on the list below, but you operate too much in extremes and black/white, Wincel, and you struggle with nuance, which is one of your problems.

For example, yes, of course the holocaust happened. But were the numbers 600k (like early reports), or 6M (like current reports)? Or, you say there is no god, but in reality there is just no evidence one way or the other that there is a god, or that he/she/it is benevolent.

This is why the Apollo mission in the 60s was fake and why we must further explore our next door planet neighbor.

When that “far right extremism ideology” can no longer be logically argued, they must invent a “new truth”.

Truth is it will never be known perfectly, but the number is likely upwards of 5 million. Is it 6 exactly? Unknown. Scholarly references show around 5.4. And it is known that was probably an undercount. Is every holocaust story you hear true? No.

We know the early reports were gross undercounts. The full scale of the genocide wasn't revealed for many years. It took decades to really sort out the missing and dead.

I consider physics to effectively invalidate the common religious notions of God, which usually require a global notion of "present" for the universe in their model. They have God as a realtime observer for the entire universe. The model makes sense in ancient contexts, but is completely upended by the theory of relativity.

Their 25 yr veteran that wrote a piece calling out NPR's echo chamber (where truth become irrelevant) and increasing bias got a lot of attention earlier this month. He was suspended a couple of days ago for pointing it out. And now he quit. May the echo chamber live forever!!!
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

Katherine Maher says the "the number one challenge" in her fight against disinformation is "the First Amendment in the United States," which makes it "a little bit tricky" to censor "bad information" and "the influence peddlers" who spread it.

So you consider a theory that has passed lots of tests but that is not really expected to holdup once we get a better grip of quantum mechanics as proof there is no god?

this is why I say you lack nuance - you are sort of one step up from a parrot - maybe an african grey - basically just mimicking what you hear.

To be clear, I personally don't believe there is a god, but that is just personal belief - there is no scientific proof one way or the other

If everyone can have their own truth, then why do we need to have all of that "truth" all together under one incompatible country? If they're so vehemently opposed to the other side's truth, then why continue insisting in some laughable guise of national unity?

Oh that's right, they're closeted, psychopathic authoritarians at heart and want nothing more than to put everyone under their yoke.
I will stand firm, I refuse to kneel - The fury in me is divine
My dark grave awaits, my fate is revealed - But I'm not afraid to die

Yes, unless there is more evidence for the alternative.

You're entitled to your dumbchit opinions.

There are also logical proofs that "omniscience" and "omnipotence" are ill defined, but okay, I'll humor you. Define "God" for me, then. Once you nail down a fuking definition, it's possible to even remotely proceed to evaluate the truth value of your bullchit. So, go ahead. Define wtf "God" even is.

You can't and won't, and that is why it is bullchit.
